CEDAR RAPIDS – The gardens at Noelridge Park have been the site of some really incredible events this summer, with more scheduled for the fall.

Free plant cutting demonstrations are the latest activities, with three dates scheduled: Sept. 17, 24 and Oct. 1, all beginning at 9 a.m.

Meet the greenhouse staff at the Noelridge garden entrance, 4900 Council Street NE, and bring clippers and a bucket.

The staff will instruct students on the proper way to take cuttings. For more information, contact Kristie Benzine, (319) 286-5762.
